Yeah, that's a great point, because one of the other things that makes genetic data so unique is that not only does it completely uniquely identify you as a person and it cannot be changed, but it also identifies your blood relatives. And this is sometimes a challenge with families in the clinic that I work sometimes in the hospital at the University of Michigan.
That family's face is that one face. member of the family would like to be tested for an invasive genetic disease that might not have a treatment and the other family members don't want to know.
